⚠️ Important: Storing credentials directly in a configuration file is not secure. It is recommended to use secure credential storage methods, such as environment variables or the Microsoft Configuration API (User Secrets / Azure Key Vault). If you decide to keep the connection string in the file, ensure it is excluded from version control and accessible only to authorized users.

This project is configured to use Aiven as the default database provider. If you wish to use another provider, ensure your connection string matches the required format and parameters.

The database schema is available in the database/ folder under the file sumbp20250121.sql.
